“With the summer just around the corner, Humble is pleased to be releasing the first in a series of bundles devoted towards kids,” says Humble Bundle Director of Books Kelley L. Allen. “The genesis of this bundle started a few months ago when I was asked to attend a meeting with a small group of top notch publishers. Their goal: Bringing to the public eye the genre of children’s graphic novels and comics. This bundle represents a wonderful collaboration working with both the publishers and the Children’s Book Council and Every Child a Reader organization. We hope that both kids (and their parents) enjoy our collective handiwork!”

“We are excited to partner with Humble Bundle to bring popular graphic novels and comics to readers this Children’s Book Week,” says Jon Colman, Executive Director of the Children’s Book Council and Every Child a Reader. “Support of this Humble Bundle will enable Every Child a Reader to expand its programming to reach more underserved communities nationwide, sharing the joy of reading with every child.”

As with all Humble Bundles, customers can choose how their purchase dollars are allocated, between the publisher and charity. The Humble Kids Comics Bundle Supporting Children’s Book Week supports Comic Book Legal Defense Fund (CBLDF), a non-profit organization dedicated to protecting the First Amendment rights of the comics medium, and Every Child a Reader, which strives to make the reading and enjoyment of children’s books an essential part of America’s educational and social aims.

The Humble Kids Comics Bundle Supporting Children’s Book Week runs from now until Wednesday, May 13, 2015 at 11 a.m. Pacific time.
